April Lorenzi

April Lorenzi is the founder of The Secret Dance Technique, a live online dance education program that helps children build future-ready life skills through movement. Students develop their dance technique in styles such as ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip-hop, musical theatre, and K-pop while learning skills they can carry into school, relationships, performances, and everyday life.

After experiencing firsthand how mental skills transformed her own life both on and off the stage, April set out to help other dancers discover these same tools. She found that the skills supporting success in dance—such as perseverance, emotional awareness, focus, and self-belief—were rarely taught directly, even though they could make a lasting difference far beyond the studio.

April’s international performance career has taken her across the United States, Europe, the Caribbean, Brazil, and Dubai. Her professional credits include three years performing at Walt Disney World, along with work for Motiongate Dubai Theme Parks, Parque de Atracciones de Madrid, MSC Cruises, contemporary dance companies, and other entertainment productions.

As an educator and choreographer, April has worked with dancers of all ages and abilities, from young beginners to professional performers. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree with dual majors in Psychology and Interdisciplinary Studies, specializing in Performance Psychology, as well as a minor in Dance.

April is the author of The Secret Dance Technique, The Daily Dance Diary, and Travel Like a Local Orlando.
